Ingredients and customization
Frozen peaches: I use sliced frozen peaches for the best texture. Using pre-frozen fruit also makes prep a lot quicker.
Frozen mango complements the peach flavors well. Choose diced mango pieces.
Minced ginger adds a bright, zesty kick. I mince my own ginger but you can use a jar of ginger to save on time.
Yogurt: Greek yogurt adds protein and an extra creamy texture. I use plain yogurt to limit added sugars, but vanilla or peach flavored would be delicious. Use your favorite vegan yogurt to make dairy-free.
Milk: Choose your favorite milk. I usually go for unsweetened and unflavored soy milk, but any kind works well here.
Sweetener: If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add 1 teaspoon at a time of agave syrup or honey.
Recipe FAQ
If using fresh peaches, I recommend peeling them because the peel will alter the texture if not blended thoroughly. If you don't mind a little extra texture, leave the peach skin on for extra fiber.
Peaches go well with most fruits but I think it pairs best with mango. Cherries, strawberries and banana are also great options.
I always use frozen fruit in smoothies for the best texture! You can use fresh fruit but I recommend blending in a few ice cubes as well.
For best quality, I recommend making this smoothie no more than 24 hours in advance. Cover and store in the fridge until ready to drink.
